Narrative disconnectįorspoken follows Alfrey Holland, who goes by Frey, a troubled 21-year-old orphan whisked away to a magical world called Athia (Alice in Wonderland-style) on Christmas Day. Those flaws hold it back from becoming the next great open-world game, but fantasy fans should find plenty to enjoy as they dash through a vast world as a powerful sorceress. Long-winded story interludes also fail to emphasize what the game does best.
Forspoken’s story is much less consistent, though, with an excellent lead performance and notable twists that are sullied by poor pacing and delivery.įorspoken is magical when focusing on its strengths, but it’ll take some crawling to get through a slow opening. Once players have some time to get comfortable with the controls, running around the vast and well-designed open world of Athia is equally adventurous and exhilarating, with combat acting as a visual spectacle that rewards mastery of its systems.
Forspoken is the first major AAA release of the year and the latest PlayStation 5 console exclusive, so all eyes are on it to deliver.
